One of things people don't get about Ebay is that there aren't really many bargains, unless you are the only bidder and the dealer forgot to set a reserve.
If the listing is good, the item not incredibly specialist, and the auction runs for a decent amount of time, the final price is normally pretty much the true market value of the item.
In the case of the caravan, you paid £4500 because your bid was higher than the second place bidder, who I guess thought it was worth £4490!
So the caravan isn't worth £5000 or £6000. Its worth £4500 because thats the highest figure anyone was willing to pay for it. Thats how auctions work.
